Popis: Summary and Conclusions1. The febrile reaction elicited by intravenous injections of some samples of inulin is similar to that following the intravenous administration of pyrogenic infusion fluids in 'both dog and man. 2. The pyrogen in the inulin as well as that in the pyrogenic infusion fluid is filterable through a Berkefeld filter, but held back by filtration through 2 Seitz Serum No. 3 filter pads and by Zsigmondy membrane filters of from 200 to 300 sec-onds. 3. The pyrogen in inulin, like that in pyrogenic infusion fluids, is therefore of a particulate nature of a large order of mag-nitude. It is likewise adsorbable.
